Oh, really?

I still don't understand why Casu Marzu isn't the number one item on that list.

I can't decide if a boiled duck fetus is worse than the larvae-infested cheese or the baby mice wine. Luckily, I'll never have to find out. Smiley: yippee

Its translucent larvae are able to jump about 6 inches into the air, making this the only cheese that requires eye protection while eating. The taste is strong enough to burn the tongue, and the larvae themselves pass through the stomach undigested, sometimes surviving long enough to breed in the intestine, where they attempt to bore through the walls, causing vomiting and bloody diarrhea.

It's the maggot cheese.

The pediatrician said that the kids would eat when they were hungry. I love her and she was wrong. I assume my kids are not typical and they would go days without eating if they don't want what I make. I will not quantify days but it broke me... It makes me sad because I love to cook and my family does not appreciate my ability (and yes doubters, I am an AWESOME cook, my skills are wasted).

They're eating somewhere. Don't worry about it. They eat when they're hungry. They really do. Their bodies won't let them not starve. I always just told my kids "If you don't like it, you can go make yourself a sandwich. Or go to your room." There are plenty of times when Charmaine or Steven or Anthony lived on PB&J sandwiches for a week because I went on a creative spree and the kids didn't want to see what I made with gizzards or pork belly.

Nope my kids wouldn't eat anything... Seriously.

I was wondering when balut would show up on the list. I have a friend who claims it's good, while we poke fun at him for liking it. Of course, he's Filipino.

I'm actually kind of curious about the Balut. I mean, on the one hand, it sounds terrible in every way, on the other, I haven't tried it yet, and so I must.

It could, but it hasn't yet.
